Technical Specifications

This 1-inch trade size LR condulet features copper-free aluminum construction with Series 5 heavy-duty design specifications. The unit measures 5.94 inches in length, 2.51 inches in height, and 1.9 inches in width, while weighing only 0.64 pounds for easy handling. The LR shape provides a 90-degree conduit routing solution with integrated wire pulling access, making it ideal for rigid and IMC conduit systems in ordinary/non-hazardous locations. NEC/CEC compliance ensures proper code adherence for professional electrical installations.

Installation Process

1. Verify conduit alignment and measure required routing path for proper LR condulet placement
2. Thread the condulet onto the first conduit run, ensuring full engagement of threads
3. Position the outlet body to achieve desired 90-degree routing angle for the second conduit run
4. Install the second conduit section, maintaining proper support spacing per NEC/CEC requirements
5. Remove the cover and install conductors using proper wire pulling techniques
6. Reinstall cover with appropriate gasket if environmental sealing is required

Applications

Perfect for:

• Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail facilities, and healthcare installations requiring reliable conduit routing
• Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and warehouse electrical distribution systems
• Equipment Connections - Motor control centers, switchgear, and electrical panel connections
• Conduit Direction Changes - 90-degree routing solutions where standard elbows cannot provide wire access
• Maintenance Access Points - Strategic locations requiring future wire pulling or system modifications
• Outdoor Installations - Corrosion-resistant aluminum construction ideal for exterior conduit runs
• Municipal Infrastructure - Schools, government buildings, and public facility electrical systems
• Agricultural Systems - Farm buildings and processing facilities where corrosion resistance is critical

Condulet Outlet Body System Benefits

Condulet outlet bodies provide superior flexibility compared to standard conduit elbows by offering removable access for wire installation and maintenance. The LR configuration combines the benefits of a 90-degree elbow with integrated pulling access, eliminating the need for separate junction boxes in many applications. This design reduces material costs, installation time, and potential failure points while maintaining full NEC/CEC compliance for professional electrical systems.

Why Choose Copper-Free Aluminum Construction?

Copper-free aluminum construction delivers exceptional corrosion resistance while maintaining the lightweight handling benefits that reduce installer fatigue and speed installation. Unlike steel alternatives, aluminum naturally resists corrosion without requiring additional coatings, making it ideal for outdoor applications and environments with moisture exposure. The Series 5 heavy-duty design ensures this condulet will provide decades of reliable service while meeting the demanding requirements of commercial and industrial electrical contractors.
